Mansfield: Tiger Lost In The Woods

Here's the odd thing for me: Celebrities make their careers by living life "out loud". They hire PR firms to advance their name, talent, position or political connections. Face-time on network television is a "must". Magazine covers are needed and wanted. Being seen ... is everything. So, when life takes a tumble, why is it that their lives suddenly become "private" and policeman are turned away at their doors, with legal questions about their actions being set aside -- as if they live in a different world?/Dennis Mansfield. More here.

Question: Does a celebrity like Tiger Woods have a right to claim bad episodes in his life are private matters when he doesn't mind living life "out loud" at most other times?
